Border Security Force (BSF) seized narcotics weighing 50 kg, valued at over Rs 75 crore on the black market, in a joint operation with the Narcotics Control Bureau and the Excise and Narcotics Department of Mizoram. The drugs were concealed in a truck destined for Champhai. This success is a testament to the enhanced coordination between various law enforcement agencies in combating drug trafficking along the India-Myanmar border.
Last week, on August 21st, the BSF, acting on specific intelligence, conducted a joint operation with the Narcotics Control Bureau (NCB) and the Excise and Narcotics Department of Mizoram. The operation intercepted four suspected vehicles on the Aizawl-Champhai National Highway and arrested eight persons. During the search, officers found three plastic bags containing 50 packets of pinkish tablets (suspected to be Methamphetamine or Yaba) weighing approximately 50 kilograms and 3 soap cases containing 36 grams of heroin. The value of the seized narcotics is estimated to be over Rs 75 crore in the illicit market.
This achievement highlights the success of the enhanced coordination between law enforcement agencies in combating drug trafficking in the region. The BSF has reaffirmed its commitment to collaborating with sister agencies to combat the smuggling of drugs and to protect the youth from the dangers of narcotics trafficking networks.
This is a clear indication that the country is strengthening its efforts to crack down on illegal drug activity, which is a growing concern. The successful operation also underscores the importance of seamless coordination between law enforcement agencies in tackling trans-border crime.
This recent development may also spark discussions among government officials and law enforcement agencies about the necessity for further proactive measures and enhanced coordination to combat the drug trade. With this recent success, authorities are now one step closer to dismantling this international racket and safeguarding the well-being of the Indian population.
